Training objectives
- The course intends to integrate the theoretical knowledge acquired in the courses of Topography and of Automatic Design with applications in the survey and representation of buildings close to the professional reality, with particular reference to architectural and structural purposes.
The course is divided into two mandatory laboratories:
a) Laboratory A: Two-dimensional survey and representation of the building with the close range photogrammetric technique.
b) Laboratory B: Geometric structural survey. Prerequisites
- To attend the course it is necessary to have good familiarity in the use of simple topographic instrumentation (meter, cord, laser EDM) and the knowledge of the elementary commands of a 2D and 3D CAD software. Furthermore, as indicated by the Manifesto of Studies, in order to access the activities that take place in the laboratories, it is necessary to acquire the suitability on Safety Training in the workplace in accordance with the Italian Legislative 81/2008.
Course programme
- Detection and two-dimensional representation of the prospectus of a building with the photogrammetric technique of digital analytical rectification by points with exercise related to the analytical straightening of the prospectus of a building and metric verification of the obtained precision.
Structural geometric survey according to the regulations of a building with a structural geometric survey of a building and its representation. Didactic methods
- The duration of each workshop is approximately 30 hours (a month and a half of lessons in the teaching period).
Attendance at laboratories is mandatory.
Each laboratory will be preceded by theoretical lessons in the classroom of introduction and in-depth study.
At the end of the lessons related to a laboratory, a specific theme will be assigned to a student or a group of students.
At the end of the course a written dissertation and graphic-numerical papers must be completed and delivered.
During attendance at the laboratories students will be assisted by the teacher. Learning assessment procedures
- During the course, as part of the performance of the activities planned for each laboratory, students' ability to complete the assigned thematic exercises and the preparation of a report on the activities carried out is verified.
To take the exam, participation in laboratory activities is mandatory, as is the delivery of dissertations. The final exam focuses on two tests.
In the first test the student presents, also with the help of computer aids (audio and video) the work done during the laboratories in which he participated and discusses its contents with the teacher. This test serves to verify both the expository skills and the practical notions acquired during the frequency and the maturation of some minimum competences in the survey and in the representation: the test lasts approximately 30 minutes and is evaluated with a score from 0 to 30.
The second test concerns an open question concerning the theoretical contents of the course, to which the student must answer in writing. The aim is to verify the knowledge acquired on the subject and the ability to link the theoretical arguments to the application context. The duration of this test is approximately 45 minutes and is evaluated with a score from 0 to 30.
To pass the exam a minimum score of 18 out of 30 must be obtained: the score is expressed as a weighted average of the scores achieved in the first and second test.
In this regard it should be noted that the course program may undergo major changes year after year: therefore, to complete the educational path, it is advisable for the student to take the final exam within the academic year in which the workshops were attended. Reference texts
